HOW TO REGISTER AND GET APPROVED FOR THE FORUM

1. Follow Directions:
Many accounts are deleted simply because the person registering didn't follow directions during the registration process.

US Users: Put your city and state for your location. Follow instructions and DO NOT put USA, US, United States as your location. Doing so will result in your account being deleted. You can change this information once your account is approved.

Foreign Users: Put your Country and City for your location and also put a reason you would like to register. If you don't put a reason why you want to use the forum, your account will be deleted.

2. Do NOT use your email address as your username
Unless you really want it public and like spam, do not use your full email address as your board username. Remember, this is publicly visible. We have, in the past, deleted these accounts to protect you from yourself. Going forward if you want it public, then it will be public.

If you get a notice that your account was deleted then you likely didn't follow directions or we suspected that your account was a spam bot / spammer.

If you registered but then your account is not there, read above. It is most likely that your account was deleted for not following directions.

It can take up to 7 days for your account to be approved as we have to manually review and approve every registration.

I find this to be pretty exciting as there haven't been very many, 'modern' loads of 7.62x39. My current go-to is Hornady 123gr SST (the, 'Z-Max' ammo is the same stuff with a different colored polymer tip) which performs pretty well. My alternates are Yugoslavian M67 (that stuff is hot and fragments pretty good in soft tissue) and 154gr SP ammo. Yes there are others (such as Cor-Bon DPX and Federal Fusion) but I always welcome something new.

Regardless, good to see some other manufacturers making some improvements to the line (seriously, if half the effort that has been put towards 5.56 in the last decade was applied to the 7.62x39......)

Haven't seen any locally (and I can actually get ammo in my AO--bought 500 rounds of 5.56 in the last week at non-rape pricing in stores) but plan on picking some up as soon as I do. My local Cabela's carries the other PDX-line stuff (including stuff like, 'PDX Defensive .22lr' and other such nonsense) so hopefully I'll have some in hand soon.
